Hi, I'm 19 M Freshman and I have a really free schedule this fall. Most days I'm done by 10 am and the latest class I have is 11 am which leaves the entire afternoon for me to either study or do something else. My classes are pretty chill so I don't really need alot of time to study for them.

In the past I have backed out of interviews because the working environment didn't seem pleasant for me. Not to be picky, but the ideal workplace I am looking for is somewhere with people around my age instead of older people (my part-time work now is with people twice my age). I really want it to not only be a place of work but also make friends and have fun.

I have been to apply to almost every listing I see everywhere. Any tips to actually get hired? and whereee???

I'm a Freshman taking pre-reqs for Nursing. I really want to take my Science classes on time to have them all done for CalState applications. My dumbass ignored the Promise Agreement email back in May so now I do not have priority registration.

The science classes I still need to take are AnaPhy I, AnaPhy II, Intro to Chem, GenChem, Microbiology. I still have Winter 2027, Spring 2027, Summer 2027, and Fall 2027 to get them all done in time for CalState application. All these classes fit well on my Education Plan if all goes well.

Do you guys know any tips to atleast have a good shot at securing a slot? Does keeping in touch with the professor work just in case I end up on a waitlist?

I also do not qualify for any other ways of priority registration like EOPS/Student-Parent/Veteran.

[P.S. I did not come here to get the scary "no you will not get in, everybody needs that class too" kind of reply. Quite frankly, I am already aware of how fucked up my situation is. I need genuine advise and tips]

Edit: sounded kinda creepy…. Imma girl and I just have no interest in male friends that’s why😭 I’m not a creepy old man yet

Does anybody have any recommendation for which Professor I should target getting into for the following classes:

Anatomy and Physiology I, Anatomy and Physiology II, Introductory Chemistry, General Chemistry, Microbiology.

I know who you take it matters a lot. I fortunately took Biology with an amazing Prof. over the summer semester and he made the accelerated course so much easier.

Do you guys have any recommended Profs who make the class fun and easy?
